PDTD: a web-accessible protein database for drug target identification
2008
Background
Target identification is important for modern drug discovery. With the advances in the development of molecular docking, potential binding proteins may be discovered by docking a small molecule to a repository of proteins with three-dimensional (3D) structures. To complete this task, a reverse docking program and a drug target database with 3D structures are necessary. To this end, we have developed a web server tool, TarFisDock (Tar get Fis hing Dock ing) http://www.dddc.ac.cn/tarfisdock, which has been used widely by others. Recently, we have constructed a protein target database, P otential D rug T arget D atabase (PDTD), and have integrated PDTD with TarFisDock. This combination aims to assist target identification and validation.
